Helium Boy Wii is a 3D platform game inspired by the Nintendo classic Balloon Kid. It is a port of an older game that was developed for the author's final year project at the University of Skovde.
The original game was created in 11 weeks using the Ogre3D rendering engine and was nominated for "Best PC-Game" in the Swedish Game Awards 2006. The Wii port and updated engine were completed in just over two weeks.
Installation
The game is only compatible with the front SD slot.
Extract the files into apps\ in the root of the SD card and launch from the Homebrew Channel.
User guide
You fly using helium balloons and collect stars while watching out for birds and flying ninjas, and try to reach the end of the level.
The game supports Wiimote+Nunchuck.
